Night Watch/Nochnoy Dozor (2004)

IMDB Rating: 6.4

Watched it post the review by The pirates are here. A story on supernatural beings or 'Others' who exist among normal people. These are split between the forces of light and dark, and a uneasy truce prevails over them. Set in modern day Moscow, it shows how the dark Others roam the night as vampires while a "Night Watch" of light forces, the protagonist among them, try to control them and limit their outrage. Very reminiscent of Underworld, Hell Boy, and Matrix in some ways, but is a fresh look at the genre.

Verdict: Has sharp teeth. Will sink into your throat.
